Subtitle: Russia has reportedly completed construction from Syria to Iran
of the same type of sophisticated anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense which
currently defends Moscow. Undoubtedly, Russian advisers are helping man this
defense.

An American attack on either Syria or Iran means an attack on Russia.

On April 12, 2003, just days after Coalition Forces had taken
Baghdad, Russian President Putin strode to a podium and drew a huge line in
the sand against President Bush. No more, said Putin, no more will we allow
you to invade a country and achieve a "Regime Change". With the Presidents
of Germany and France behind him, Putin told President Bush to back off.

At the time, we wondered how a great power like Russia would
back up its bravado with action, in order to keep America from taking action
which would relegate Russia to backwater status.

Now, we may be seeing how President Putin was planning to back
up his demand. Let us begin with the original news story.

"Saint Petersburg -- Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday warned
the US-led coalition not to attack other countries under the pretext of promoting
capitalist and democratic values after having defeated Iraq's dictatorial regime.
'We are not going to export capitalist, democratic revolutions,' the Russian
leader told reporters as rumours in Washington allege that some elements of
the US administration are mulling launching military operations against other
Middle Eastern states. 'If we do, we're going to end up on a slippery slope
to non-ending military conflicts. We can't let that happen,' Putin said at a
joint press conference with German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder and French President
Jacques Chirac after holding talks with them."

We saw several very important aspects to Putin's warning.

1) Even though the leaders of Germany and France attended this news conference,
the spokesman was Russia's Putin. This fact speaks loudly to the reality that
Russia may be the one superpower that is willing to actually stand up to the
United States. Her military preparations speak even more loudly to this reality.

At the time Putin issued his strong warning, he had positioned Russian naval
units on station in exactly the right areas the U.S. is planning to effect the
next "regime change". The United States is planning to effect "regime
changes" through military action in the Persian Gulf region -- Syria, Iran,
Saudi Arabia -- and on the Korean Peninsula.

This naval deployment in place at the time Putin made his remarks backed up
his warning at that time. Therefore, we were highly interested in checking our
Daily News Updates Archives during the Summer and Fall, 2003. Even though Bush
officials were constantly breathing dire threats against Syria and Iran, our
forces took no action. Now, as we shall see in a few moments, Putin was quietly
taking another action which just might permanently put Iran and Syria permanently
off-limits to American military power.

2) Even though the leaders of Germany and France attended this news conference,
the spokesman was Russia's Putin. This fact speaks loudly to the reality that
Russia may be the one superpower that is willing to actually stand up to the
United States. Her military preparations speak even more loudly to this reality.

3) Putin used the descriptive language "slippery slope" to describe
America's actions. This term is usually reserved for the very special circumstance
in which national actions are seen creating an inevitable slide into all-out
war. This terminology reminded me of the assassination of the Austrian Archduke
Ferdinand which started the world down a "slippery slope" to World
War I.

Thus, the battle lines seemed to be drawn against the two world's military
superpowers. Even though Russia has an economy dwarfed by the United States,
she now fields the very modern force she began to bring on line in 1998. Further,
Russia has EM interferometer scalar weapons that are so superior to anything
the United States has, that Russia may really be the only true world's superpower

RUSSIAN CHECKMATE?

With this information as background, let us now delve into this most interesting
story from DEBKAfile Intelligence. After examining this article, you might just
conclude that Russia's Putin has just checkmated America's Bush. You might also
conclude that, perhaps, Russia is beginning to move into the Middle East in
just the manner necessary for her to one day march against Israel in fulfillment
of Ezekiel 38-39.

"Russian president Vladimir Putin and Syrian president Bashar Assad, who
arrived in Moscow Monday, January 24, will sign a $70 million deal for the sale
of 20 SA-18 Igla-S batteries mounted on Armored Personnel Carriers. One of the
most effective missiles against low-flying aircraft on the market, the SA-18
is manufactured at the Russian KBM factory near Moscow ... The Igla-S is also
effective against small targets like reconnaissance drones, helicopters and
cruise missiles. Missile experts report that when fired against fighter craft
an Igla-S has the effectiveness of two missiles fired in a single round –
or five missiles when launched against a cruise missile."

An earlier DEBKAfile report on this issue stated that this anti-aircraft and
ant-missile system was the same system protecting Moscow right now! Therefore,
we can see how very serious Putin was when he originally warned America on April
12, 2003, not to attack either Syria or Iran. Before he stepped to the podium,
Putin and his military advisers almost certainly had conceived this air defense
system which could protect the Middle East from Iran to Syria from the enormous
threat of Israeli and/or American air power.

Now, let us go back to DEBKAfile to learn more of this air defense system:

"Moscow’s objective is partly to secure its investment in Iran’s
nuclear center at Bushehr on the Persian Gulf against the fate of the Saddam
Hussein’s French-built Tamuz nuclear center which the Israeli air force
bombed out existence 24 years ago ... Russian experts from the Raduga OKB engineering
group in Dubna near Moscow had just completed the installation of two advanced
radar systems around the Bushehr nuclear reactor on the Persian Gulf. These
improved mobile 36D6 systems, Western code namedTin Shield,
were custom-made to upgrade the air defense radar protecting Iran’s key
nuclear facilities from American or Israeli aerial, missile or cruise missile
attack." (Ibid.)

When Putin issued his "line in the sand" warning, he knew of the
immense Russian effort then underway to build these nuclear power and enrichment
plants in Iran. Not wanting to see a tremendous amount of money go down the
drain, along with Russia's global credibility, Putin was taking these actions
to protect his investment in Iran. For a while, Russia evidently was able to
conceal their true intentions, until the last steps. Listen:

"... the fat hit the fire when the Russians were discovered to be building
the same system at Iran’s uranium enrichment plants for military purposes
in Isfahan in central Iran. It was taken to mean that Moscow has undertaken
to secure all of Iran’s nuclear industry from top to bottom – from
the installation of sophisticated equipment to military planning and operational
cooperation - against American or Israeli attack. Moscow has thus placed a serious
impediment in the path of any American and Israel military action to curb Iran’s
nuclear armament. This Russian-Iranian cooperation looks like the harbinger
of geo-strategic understandings in other places like Afghanistan, India, Iraq
and the Persian Gulf." (Ibid.)

Now, you can see the outlines of the chess match between Putin and Bush. According
to this article, Russia "has undertaken to secure all of Iran’s nuclear
industry from top to bottom – from the installation of sophisticated equipment
to military planning and operational cooperation - against American or Israeli
attack."

Further, this giant military and diplomatic undertaking is seen as being part
of new "geo-strategic understandings in other places" throughout the
Middle East. President Bush has busily been enunciating his new vision -- "War
On Terror" and "Unilateral Attack" -- since the attacks of 9/11.
For the most part, Russia has either tacitly gone along with these new Bush
Doctrines, or has not actively opposed them, as we would expect given prophecy
at the End of Age.

However, Russia has to fulfill her particular date with prophetic history as
the designated leader of the forces marching against Israel at the End of the
Age. Is this departure with American policy the beginning of the long-awaited
Russian incursion into Middle East politics?

Now, let us return to this featured article to gain insight as to possible
Russian protection against Syria:

"Already, the Russian military umbrella over Iran is emitting diplomatic
signals ... On January 12, the day Russian radar was finally installed at Bushehr
and Isfahan, the Kremlin leaked word of a large-scale arms deal afoot with Syria
... What really worries Washington and Jerusalem is the possibility of Assad
and Putin putting their heads together on the same 36D6 radar system Moscow
has supplied Iran. Our military sources describe the Tin Shield
36D6 as a mobile radar system designed to detect air targets and perform friend-or-foe
identification. It is highly effective in detecting low, medium and high altitude
targets moving at almost any speed, including winged missiles and American or
Israeli cruise missiles. It is capable of providing the target and bearing of
active jamming, as well as integrated computer-aided systems of control and
guidance of anti-aircraft missile complexes. Tin Shield can
operate independently as an observation and air detection post, as part of computer-aided
control systems or as an element in an anti-air guided missile complex, where
it carries out reconnaissance and targeting. If Syria gets this sophisticated
system, a Russian-coordinated Iranian-Syrian-Lebanese radar barrier will rise
with three serious consequences that go beyond the balance of strength in the
Middle East..." (Ibid.)

Did you catch the pertinent geo-political sentence in this quote?

"If Syria gets this sophisticated system, a Russian-coordinated Iranian-Syrian-Lebanese
radar barrier will rise with three serious consequences that go beyond the balance
of strength in the Middle East..." (Ibid.)

If this system does go up, from Syria to the West to Iran to the East, what
impact might it have on American aerial operations?

"The 36D6 radar system deployment, if acquired by Syria as well Iran,
will confine US aerial operations in Iraq to a narrow corridor hemmed in by
sophisticated Russian radar and reconnaissance systems. Its deployment at nuclear
sites in northern Iran near the Afghan border will obstruct any American air
operation mounted from the north against Iran from Afghan bases, while the Russian
radar system’s presence in Syria will hinder an American or Israeli strike
against Iran from the west." (Ibid.)

Unless America and/or Israel has a sophisticated answer to this sophisticated
Russian air defense shield, we will suffer a great loss in our ability to take
action anywhere in the Middle East our commanders deem necessary. Furthermore,
if American forces can defeat this Russian system, Putin will know that he cannot
defend Moscow any longer.

Since the Russians have been talking to the Syrians -- and presumably the Iranians
-- for almost two years now, you have to realize that America knew the basic
outlines of what Russia was attempting to implement; is this the reason we have
huffed and puffed since Summer, 2003, without taking any action?

With this two-year-old cooperation between Russia and Syria now reported publicly,
this next story makes a lot of sense.

"MOSCOW (AFP) - Russia and Syria pledged to restore Soviet-era ties, striking
an accord on Damascus' debts to Moscow and future military cooperation ... Syrian
President Bashar al-Assad, whose visit to Moscow provoked a row between Israel
and Russia over reported plans to sell advanced Russian missiles to Syria, signed
a declaration with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on defence ties ... These
are defensive weapons, air defence, to prevent aircraft from entering our airspace,"
Assad said, asked to comment on the reported contract for portable Igla anti-aircraft
missiles ... Putin vowed to reinvigorate lapsed ties between Moscow and Damascus,
a former Soviet client state which has traditionally been a major purchaser
of Russian weapons."

If Russia's Putin is seeking to "restore Soviet-era ties" with Syria,
you can bet he is intent upon restoring all ties with Arab states formerly allied
with the old Soviet Union. Russia's entry into the Middle East maelstrom may
be closer at hand than many have formerly believed.

Will we attack Syria and/or Iran now, even though we may take significant losses
and possibly prompt a conflict with Russia? We shall have to wait to see, but
the major fact today is that this Russian air defense system is now reportedly
in place right now, protecting both nuclear power plants in Iran. Some weeks
ago, the American commander of forces in Iraq became visibly upset, wondering
aloud how Iran could actually threaten our powerful combined forces; perhaps
this new Russian system and new Russian diplomatic support is the reason Iran
felt so bold.

Events in the Middle East continue to move toward all-out conflict, just as
the Bible prophesied so many years ago.
